-------- ------------ --------------------------------

12 ounces Italian soy " sausage " links (try Lightlife

brand at lightlife.com) -- (1 package) cut into 1/2- inch pieces

2 Tbsp. olive oil

12 oz. kale -- thoroughly washed

2 Tbsp. water

2 cloves garlic -- minced

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper

2 cans cannelini beans -- (15 1/2-oz.) including

liquid

1 can whole tomatoes -- (14 1/2-oz.) drained

2 cups vegetable broth -- or faux chicken broth

 

In a large pot over medium-high heat, sauté the " sausage " in the

olive oil until browned. Move the sausage to a paper-towel-lined

plate and set aside.

 

Meanwhile, remove the stalk ends from the kale and discard. Coarsely

chop the kale, and put it and the water into the pot. Cover the pot

and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes or until kale is just

tender, stirring occasionally.

 

Add the garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper. Continue cooking,

uncovered, for 5 minutes.

 

Add the beans (including liquid) along with the tomatoes and the

vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer,

covered, for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to break up the

tomatoes. Add the " sausage, " stir, and serve immediately.
